A couple of people have been conned into thinking they're getting a bargain Stainless steel performance exhaust by an Ebay trader.

Adverts like this:- http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/MGF-Back-Box_W0QQitemZ120544103817QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM?hash=item1c10fd0d89#ht_644wt_1165

The seller is using a photo of what is probably a Miltek SS exhaust to flog off second hand standard exhausts.

He has other adverts with misleading photos so be careful out there guys. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/MGF-Back-Box_W0QQitemZ120544109332QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM?hash=item1c10fd2314#ht_568wt_1165
If something looks too good to be true, it probably is!

Makes sense - £47 for a Milltek seemed way to good to be true!

The clever thing is that, in the past, people have got bargains just like that on ebay.
However, the vast majority of traders on ebay are not mugs, and grabbing a 'bargain steal' is unlikely now.

This guy is being cute, he says the exhaust you will get is off the car in the picture. He is not saying you will get that exhaust in the picture, but you may believe that is what he is saying. What he is selling is the exhaust that came off that car to make way for the exhaust in the photo. Sophistry!

Clever, - probably not illegal but certainly immoral.

Thanks for the warning!

Currently on the look out for a Daytona if anyone knows of one for sale??
